Weather Proverbs Relating to
the Moon.

These are very numerous. Some
persons suppose that the character OF
the weather can be foretold by the
hour of the day or night when the
changes OF the moon occur. Others
think that a change OF the moon on
Saturday is always followed by q
severe Storm" and still Others say
that "a Fridays moon, come when
it will, comes too SOON" Then
again it is said il the. points OF the
new moon are upward there will
be dry weather: while Others take the
opposite view and say il they point
sideways it will he dry. But leaving
all these and many Others like them,
there are o. few proverbs about the
moon which may be worth noting
and testing. We give some of these:
When the moon is visible in the day
time, the days are relatively cool.
In Western Kansas, it is said, that
when the moon is near the full it new
er storms, and the sailors say the full
moon eats clouds.
II the full moon rises clear, expect
fine weather.
A large ring around the moon and
low clouds indicate rain in twenty
tour hours; a small ring and high
clouds, rain in several days.
Last night the moon had a golden
ring, but tonight no moon / see.
The larger The halo about the moon,
the nearer the rain clouds, and the
sooner the rain may be expected.
When the moon is darkest near the
horizon, expect rain.
II the full moon rise pale, expect
rain.
II on her checks You see the maiden blush;
The rudy moon foreshows the winds will
rush.
Il the moons seen between the scud
and broken clouds during a gale it is
expected to scud away the bad wealth
err.
In the old oil the moon a cloudy
morning bodies a fair afternoon.
II there be a general mist before sun
rise near tho full moon. the weather
will be fine for some days.
II the moon show a silver shield,
Be not afraid to reap your field,
But II she rises halved round.
You soon will tread on deluesd ground.
The rising OF setting of the moon
viii be followed by a decrease of a
storm which is then prevailing.

An esteemed contemporary is furnished by
its Augusta correspondent with biographical
sketches of the members of the Legislature,
which, all in all, are the most remarkable
productions of that kind that have found
their way into print for long while. There
are enc hundred and fifty one members of the
lower house, and the correspondent in his
struggle to say something different about
every one Of them has frequently been at his
wits end. Indeed, after tackling about sixty
he gave up in despair and grouped
the rest together as gentlemen "who had dis
tinguished themselves in greater or less de-
gree" In his individual biographies one
man is set down as shaving eyinced no am
bition to discuss other than important ques-
tions;" another is credited with making no
effort ''to obtrude himself before the
House," another one is commended for
placing himself "many times between the
people and the public robbers;' another is
credited with having spoken on ''sawdust
and other questions with good effect; still
another has often addressed the House with
sense and propriety;" TO one member is
paid the doubtful compliment of having SOC
casionally voted against public robbery" !;
another is described as not an "obtrudlng
member. but as fine, intelligent gentle
man." another is said to have been ''chary of
the farmers rights" another has an ''atten-
tive eye" and is Justly esteemed by his per-
sonal friends; down-east member is de-
scribed as of a somewhat eaptiOus turn of
mind" with no large desire to widely ex-
tend his circle of intimate acquaintance
ship; an Aroostook member is credited with
carrying the rectitude Of his daily walk in
his face" The biographer winds up with
expressing regret that slack Of time and
space does not allow the further mention of
the fidelity, service and efficiency" of certain
members who leach and all deserve sepa-
rate and specific mention no doubt fully as
much as the others, and no slight and parti-
ality is designed"

NEW PUBLICATIONS.

The Martyr of Golgotha. BY Enrique Pc
rez Eserich. Translated from the Spanish.
This is an historical romance. Perhaps we
can give no better general idea of the work
than to say it is a Spanish ben Hur." Ben
| Hur has been widely read and much admired
Let no one infer, however, that the two au-
thors, American and Spanish, are alike, when
we descend to particulars. They both attempt
to describe the life and times of Jesus of Naza-
reth, introducing many historical characters
and events, with vivid sketches of sacred
| places The American author is more self
sustained than the Spanish, who gives free
rem to his Southern fervor and ecclesiastical
| fancies. There is, moreover, plot within a
| plot The imaginary lives and fortunes of
the two thieves are given with as much rela-
tive fulness as that of the Christ. Great lib
critics are taken with several Scripture char
acters, such as Mary, the sister of Martha,
who is COMPOUNDED with the Magdalene. But
it was ever so with romancers of the second
rank, who seldom study their subjects
sufficiently to be very instructive, and
are apt to outrage the sentiments of
reverence, probability and history itself. We
do not question the sincerity of the author
in the instance before us. In his own way
he has made study of the subject, and from
his point of view endeavored to present the
Martyr of Golgotha in terms to touch the
heart and promote piety. But from our
point of view and habits of thought, it does
not edify or enlighten to read of Jesus as a
child constructing cross, covering it with
kisses, and predicting his death thereon, as
well as to Judas his future ingratitude and
crime Our great painter, Allston, would
never undertake head of Christ, giving as
reason that the subject was beyond him.
Would that others were as modest and diff
/ dent of their powers. The subject is one
that has never been treated adequately out
side the -Four Gospels, not even by Milton OF
Longfellow, both of whom approached it
with the utmost reverence and strictest ad-
herence to the Evangelists New York

Secretary Endicott and the President


The report that Secretary Endicott had
resigned is discredited, but it is evident
enough that the relations between him and
the President are very much strained, and
that his connection with the Cabinet is not
likely to last long. One report says the ex-
isting state of things grows out of the APP
pointment Of DR.. Greenleaf as assistant,
surgeon general. When Surgeon General
Murray resigned Mr.. Endicott recommended
as his successor DR.. Baxter, Republican,
who was next in rank. The President, how
ever, appointed DR.. John Moore, Demo-
crat Secretary Endicott afterward as
signed to duty as assistant surgeon general
DIR. Greenleaf, in Eplaee of DR.. Huntington,
who had been acting in that capacity. This
action was displeasing to the surgeon gener-
al, who complained of it to the President
giving as a reason for his dissatisfaction that
his personal relations with DR.. Greenleaf
were unfriendly The President referred
the surgeon generals complaint to Secre-
tary Endicott who returned it with an en-
dorsement to the effect that the President
must choose between the secretary of war
and the surgeon general, one of whom must
retire, and sent at the same time his resigna-
ton, so that the President might end the
difficulty at once by accepting it, if he should
prefer that way. Other accounts say that
the trouble over this appointment has not
been serious, but the dislike of the Presi-
dent to the Secretary arises from the fact
that the latter has not looked after the po-
litical interests of the administration as he
should, but on the contrary has been very
Indifferent to them. He is charged with
treating influential Democrats who have
called at his Office very cayalierly, and has
even refused to see Democratic congress
men, sending them word tLat he was too
busy to talk with them. Ihe TACT probably
IS that Mr.. Endicott is too much of Mug
wump to suit the Democrats and they are
determined to get rid of him. Their sue
cess is probably only question of time.

There seems to be no doubt that serious
attempt was made on the Cars life in St.
Petersburg on the anniversary of the assas-
sination of his father. The accounts differ
in many respects, but they all agree that a
bomb was thrown under his carriage, and
that his escape was due to the fact that the
mechanism to explode the bomb did not
work. A large number Of people seem to
have been knowing to the conspiracy, and a
great many arrests have already been made.
If the stories of correspondents are to be
credited that the Gar has been for long
time in state bordering on insanity this
attempt upon his life may push him across
